Pleasure And The Worry

Put me in my place and I'll stay
You're tired there's no warning it's fine either way
I just wanna sleep where you lay

This hissing republic of bliss
These terrified nights where there's nothing to miss
You set me to rights or to wits

Ending up so far apart
Free from sleeping
Crush your own simpleton heart
Clean while dreaming
Seeping, steamy
Maudlin weeping

Show me the ache in your chest
You'd trade me my shortness of breath for a kiss
Trade remorse for forgetfulness

Ending up so far apart
Free from sleeping
Crush your own mendicant heart
Clean while dreaming
Touching, speaking
Counts for nothing
Clean while dreaming
Fever sleeping
